Former England defender Sol Campbell has not laced up his boots in the Premier League since appearing for Newcastle United in 2011, but evidently still enjoys the trappings of a footballer's lifestyle.

The ex-Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur centre back has just put his plush London pad up for sale... for an astonishing £25million!

But, if you don't want to buy the listed property outright then there is the rental option of course - for a cool £15,000 a week, down from the £75,000 a week on offer for a stay during the 2012 Olympics.

The house has an outside rooftop terrace, as well as six bedrooms, five bathrooms and four living rooms

Well, for that sort of money you expect only the best and you certainly get it from this plush Chelsea pad right on the Thames riverbank.

The six-floor mansion was renovated in 2008 and has six bedrooms, five bathrooms (including three en suite), four living rooms and a double internal garage in the 7,224-square feet of space.

As if that wasn't enough, there is also a drawing room and a library for you to relax and spend some down time - as well as accommodation for 40-year-old Campbell's 'staff' in a separate annexe.

This double internal garage is a decent size and is something of a rarity in London

If you cannot afford the £25m to buy it then the house and garden are available to rent for £15,000 a week

And, during a beautiful summer's day in London, you have the option of wiling away the hours on the beautiful roof terrace or the 45-foot long garden.

Campbell, who officially retired in 2012, also represented Portsmouth and Notts County in a professional career spanning 19 years.

He scored 20 goals in 504 Football League appearances and was capped 73 times by England between 1996 and 2007, netting once.
